Thank you bOB. I will place my order soon.

Thanks bOb,
I may try the D6 tuning. I cannot roll my left ankle, so coming off of the A pedal, and rolling on to the B pedal, in conjunction with lowering the E’s at the same time are impossible.
What strings would you recommend?

Marty,
Thank you very much, for taking the time to talk to me last night. I learned a few things, in the short time we spent together. Look forward to seeing you play again. Will do, you do the same. Keep me posted on the DT pedal.

David,
I will be watching Marty tomorrow night. I look forward to learn more of his style and pick his brain on a few things. I will be paying close attention to what he says and does.

Hi Marty,
That sounds great. I’ll pm you tomorrow. I would love to come hear you play and talk shop with you.
Thanks for the advice.

Thank you Mark.
I have looked at the link and thought the same thing. I may buy a set of strings, just to try them. I appreciate all the advice.

Mark, I can operate the 3 foot pedals, but can’t LKR, or roll of A pedal onto B pedal. My ankle doesn’t roll any more. I’m not sure of the notes I’m trying to achieve. I just acquired the contact information of the guy I watched over the weekend. I will be contacting him, to find out his set...

Thanks Rich,
This is very helpful. I need to eliminate LKL and LKR, due to a hip isssue, but can incorporate the tuning and foot pedal configuration to my needs.

I saw a guy play over the weekend, who hat a Rittenberry D 10. The C 6 neck was tuned to Open G, with the knee levers removed. I was wondering if it were possible to do that on an SD 10, E 9 neck. He did have 2 foot pedals. Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to talk to him about his set up.

I have a question for the members. I have a Ritterberry SD 10 3 X 4, Emmons set up. I would like to tune to an open G, for Cajun music. Keep in mind, I cannot roll my foot and hip to activate the foot pedals and knee levers. Is it possible to go from E 9 to Open G? What strings are recommended, and ...

Thank you Jim. I have every intention of calling him tomorrow. I already one one of his awesome single neck pedal steel guitars, I’d just like to have another one added to my collection.

Thank you very much Carl. I’m wanting home to build me a single neck with 4 foot pedals and 5 knee levers. I’ve sent him serval emails, but he hasn’t responded. I know he had been ill in the past year. I do have his phone number, and will try to contact him on Monday.
Thanks againn.

Is Mr. Gary Rittenberry still building pedal steel guitars? I’ve tried contacting him, but haven’t received a response.

Please close. Found the amp I was looking ffor

I'm wanting to purchase a Peavy Nashville 112. It dosen't have to be brand new.

Sent you an email.

I would like one, if they are still available.

Carl, I sent you an email.

Thanks for all the help. I appreciate it. Bill I like the the version Joe Barcus played. It sounds more like the recording.

If I had the $$$, I'd buy it. I have been wanting an Emmons for a very long time.

I'm looking for the Intro to Keith Whitley's version of I never go around mirrors. If anyone has it I would like to get it from you. If not can someone direct me on where to get it.

Thanks for all the help guys. I know the signature licks y'all are talking about. When I play I try to get it exactly like the record.

Does anyone have David Houston's Almost Persuaded tabbed out, or know where I can get it?

I sent you a pm.
